Sustainable supply chain management (SSCM) is an expansive subject. Climate science shows that our planet’s carbon budget will be exhausted swiftly and we are amid an exceptionally rapid and human-induced biodiversity loss. Supply chains historically tend to be operated without much concern for their broader contextual environment; however, recent years have been characterised by increasing care for supply chains’ ecological and social implications. This comprehensive volume provides an overview of current and future research within SSCM, aligned with the UN SDGs.Bringing together esteemed international contributors from academia and industry, the book follows a unique framework of micro, meso and macro levels. At the micro level, contributors consider the supply chain and its stakeholders. At the meso level, chapters consider the political and economic decisions affecting societal stakeholders. And at the micro level, the book addresses planetary stakeholders, going beyond supply chains or countries to consider the implications of activities for the sustainability of the Earth.This prestigious reference work is the definitive resource for researchers and students seeking convenient access to a vast area of research and practice within supply chain management, logistics, operations and sustainability.

In a context of heightened global disruption, accelerating digital transformation, and increasing sustainability imperatives, the fifth edition of Operations Management for Business Excellence, provides a contemporary and analytically grounded framework for understanding how operations and supply chain management contribute to long-term organisational performance.The text integrates foundational principles of operations and supply chain management with recent developments in automation, artificial intelligence, robotics, connected systems, and real-time analytics. It examines how these technologies are reshaping operational decision-making, blurring traditional boundaries between planning and execution, and raising new questions concerning governance, ethics, and the role of human judgement in technology-enabled systems. Each chapter combines conceptual clarity with applied examples, linking operations strategy to practical challenges such as warehouse design in the era of Industry 5.0, omnichannel logistics, returns management, and supply network resilience. A consistent five-pillar strategic framework – adaptability, customer-driven innovation, continuous competitive recalibration, proactive risk management, and workforce empowerment – provides a structured lens through which advanced supply chain concepts are analysed.Written for undergraduate and postgraduate students, executives, and practitioners, the book balances analytical rigour with accessibility. It encourages critical evaluation of how organisations can design effective, resilient, and responsible operations, positioning operations management as a discipline that integrates people, technology, and sustainability to create enduring value.

This book illustrates the applications of mobile robot systems in warehouse operations with an integrated decision framework for their selection and application. Mobile robot systems are an automation solution in warehouses that make order fulfillment agile, flexible and scalable to cope with the increasing volume and complexity of customer orders. Compared with manual operations, they combine higher productivity and throughput with lower operating costs. As the practical use of mobile robot systems is increasing, decision-makers are confronted with a plethora of decisions. Still, research is lagging in providing the needed academic insights and managerial guidance. The lack of a structured decision framework tailored for mobile robot system applications in warehouses increases the probability of problems when choosing automation systems.This book demonstrates the characteristics of mobile robot systems which reinforce warehouse managers in identifying, evaluating and choosingcandidate systems through multiple criteria. Furthermore, the managerial decision framework covering decisions at strategic, tactical and operational levels in detail helps decision-makers to implement a mobile robot solution step-by-step. This book puts special emphasis on change management and operational control of mobile robots using path planning and task allocation algorithms. The book also introduces focus areas that require particular attention to aid the efficiency and practical application of these systems, such as facility layout planning, robot fleet sizing, and human-robot interaction. It will be essential reading for academics and students working on digital warehousing and logistics, as well as practitioners in warehouses looking to make informed decisions.
